We are you! Four normal guys with a podcast on a quest to capture a million dollar prize on DraftKings. We are not professional gamblers. Too many shows want to give you advice BEFORE the games and that's OK, what about after the games, who is there for you? WE ARE. We are the virtual and audio DFS sports bar for your ears so we can all talk about how we almost had it, or played that one guy, laugh about decisions gone wrong, and get hyped for the dart throws that ultimately let us down. One thing we know is that goats have always been able to survive harsh environments due to their resiliency, and in DFS we have to be resilient. So, join us as we talk mainly football (other sports too), discuss dad-life necessities, and crack jokes about all corners of life. Let's meet the Milly Goats... AK BIO (FROM MILLY GOATS WEBSITE) AK - NFL Fanhood: San Francisco 49ers AK played football his entire life, like all of the milly goats, most recently as a punter and swiss army knife at App State (on the App State football website it says "one of the most versatile athletes", look it up). He once beat Pat McAfee in a coffin corner contest at a punting combine in 2005, also facts. Currently he is a Doctor of Physical therapy. He mostly appreciates witty humor and sports satire with the boys, where the idea of The Milly Goats Originated (via group text). Happily married and a father of two, the cleats have been retired for quite some time but if there were an adjusted 40 yard dash time for hot sports takes he would be sub 4.3 at the combine.

SHN Presents: NO NONSENSE, OLD SCHOOL WEIGHTLIFTING HISTORY - SHN Trailers

NO NONSENSE, OLD SCHOOL WEIGHTLIFTING HISTORY is presented by the Sports History Network, the headquarters for sports yesteryear [https://sportshistorynetwork.com/podcasts/]. ABOUT SHOW: My name is Mark Morthier, and I host yesterday’s Sports on the Sports History Network. As many of you know from reading my articles and listening to my podcasts, I am not only an avid weightlifter but a fan of the sport as well. I’m excited to share my newest adventure, a show dedicated to promoting weightlifting, while also looking back at some weightlifting history. I’ll share some of my own stories and interview weightlifters from both past and present. I competed in Olympic Weightlifting from 1981 to 1989 and powerlifting from 2011 to 2019. Although I wasn’t what one might call “a naturally gifted lifter,” I managed to clean & jerk 140 kilos/308 lbs at 179 lbs body weight. In my later years, I achieved a 600-pound deadlift and a 431-pound front squat in my mid-fifties. Although I was more successful in powerlifting, setting New Jersey and New York State records in Masters Competitions, I’ll always consider myself an Olympic Weightlifter. I’ve also written a book on weight training titled No Nonsense, Old School Weight Training, which is available on Amazon. NO NONSENSE, OLD SCHOOL WEIGHTLIFTING [https://amzn.to/46UBUw1] (Amazon affiliate link) I hope that you will enjoy the show, and please leave a comment or offer a suggestion. And if you’re an Olympic lifter, past or present, let me know if you’d like to set up an interview, and I’ll do my best to have you on the show. Stay strong and God bless!
